Wall Mounted Boiler Gas Filter Fuel Purification Component Durable Clog Resistant Model

Q1: Why is a gas filter necessary for my wall-mounted boiler?
A: Gas supplied from mains can contain microscopic rust particles, pipeline dust, moisture, and installation debris. These contaminants can clog the boiler's gas valve, burners, and injectors, leading to inefficient combustion, ignition failure, increased maintenance costs, and potential safety shutdowns. This filter acts as the first line of defense.

Q2: How often does the filter need to be cleaned or replaced?
A: The maintenance interval depends on local gas quality and system usage. As a general guideline:

• Inspection/Cleaning: Check the sediment bowl visually every 6-12 months. If significant debris is visible, shut off the gas supply, depressurize, and clean the bowl and filter element.

• Element Replacement: The durable sintered element typically lasts 3-5 years under normal conditions. Reduced boiler performance or higher-than-normal gas pressure readings may indicate a clogged filter needing attention.

Q3: Can I install this filter myself?
A: Installation involves working with gas piping. We strongly recommend that installation and any maintenance be performed only by a qualified and certified gas engineer or plumber to ensure a gas-tight connection and compliance with local safety regulations. Always turn off the gas supply at the main valve before attempting any work.

Q4: Is it suitable for both natural gas and LPG (propane) systems?
A: Yes, the materials and design are compatible with both standard natural gas (methane) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG, such as propane). However, ensure your installer confirms the pressure settings and seals are appropriate for your specific gas type, as LPG systems often operate at a higher pressure.
